Give me the underground! Where bands stay themselves and don't lick the heels of the record company and grow on their own tempo without that stupid pushing of the record company!
Huge respect for all musicians: Bassist, Guitarist and Drummer for their composure..../ And of course for our unique troubadours, poets and singing philosophers, the Virgins. Prunes. !!!! Gavin & Guggy 💌🐣♥

Which the way, the way we are going? Which the way will save us all? For I have been here for so long For I have seen all I can see, All I can see, all I can see. I see further to a day, to a day never to come. With eyes in the back of my head I see all around me. I didn't know him for I didn't see. To live once again, to live in dreams, To live once again, to live once again. The walls of Jericho. The walls of Jericho. To walk on water, speak with fire, To live once again, to live once again, To live once again. I watched a man, a man he died Nailed to a cross, nailed to a cross, Nailed to a cross. He believes he can see the walls of Jericho. Which the way, the way we are going? Which the way will save us all? For I have been here for so long For I have seen all I can see, All I can see, all I can see. He believes he can see the walls of Jericho, The walls of Jericho.
Thomas Sheridan mentioned this band, mentioning how Ireland produced better bands when it was poor. 'Good times' produce Westlife, 'bad times' produce Virgin Prunes.
Regarding the U2 connection, Gavin Friday is a strange mutation of Bono and the Edge's brother is a fried version of the same. The band recall the recorded versions very well. A very far-flung bunch
Les Virgin Prunes ne se sont jamais considérés comme gothiques. Gavin Friday lui-même déteste le genre gothique. Eux se définissaient simplement comme de purs punks, libres et incontrôlables :)
Ils ne se sont jamais consideres comme Goth .. ils étaient les prunes et c'est ce qu'ils savaient faire de mieux ( c'est le batteur lui mémé qui le dit ....)
Les Goth se sont appropriés les prunes il faut dire que ça fonctionne grave avec le genre c'est bien dark mais eux en tous cas ne se sont jamais consideres comme tels ..c'est juste biblique quand on regarde les paroles .... Biblique irlandais quoi
Magic!!! Forget The Rolling Stones and The Beatles!! Discover all the material of The Virgin Prunes !! One of the best bands ever!!!
beatles,stones? pfffff you compare commercial and underground,noob.
Give me the underground! Where bands stay themselves and don't lick the heels of the record company and grow on their own tempo without that stupid pushing of the record company!
TOP NOTCH JASON DUBLINS FINEST WITH BELFASTS STILL LITTLE FINGERS AND DERRYS UNDERTONES IRELANDS PUNK HOLY TRINITY 😈
♥
god i wish their music was online
I love this almost exaggerated drama and eccentricity of the two...
an expressive hysterical energy pulsates through the song!
VP probably most unheard of and unappreciated bands of punk/goth period but there portfolio is what bands of that period could only dream to match
I love bumping this in my car at full blast. Thanks for uploading
The faces that guggi makes is priceless he's so enthusiastic lol
This song takes me back to my high school goth days in the early to mid 80's :)

They don't make bands like this anymore, bands like them set the bar really high.
Fookin hope not,I thought they were a spoof! So bad they're er, bad.

@@jamesmacoisdealbhaigh9904 My answer was directed at someone hating this, but the comment was deleted.
Sensational. Every element is right and that guitar sound so spot on
Guy on guitar is the brother of U2's guitar player, The Edge.
Pure self expression and youthful rage focussed into art.
The guitar effect is amazing. Very creepy, and punk. They deff hit the death rock genre to the point!
Truly amazing band.
VIRGIN PRUNES R AMAZING AND I MISS THEM SO MUCH
Superb!
Dark and Goth as we like!
Never seen a Virgin Prunes's video so clean, thank you for add it!
They were brilliant liveots of theater in their act aswell saw them in London 1982 supporting Theatre of Hate & the Meteors.
Mes meilleures soirées musicales !
True gothic beauty magnificent
I've just bought the heresie box set... The version of Walls of Jéricho on the second disc IS sooooo amazing...! Totally different but Magic !

Which the way, the way we are going?
Which the way will save us all?
For I have been here for so long
For I have seen all I can see,
All I can see, all I can see.
I see further to a day, to a day never to come.
With eyes in the back of my head
I see all around me.
I didn't know him for I didn't see.
To live once again, to live in dreams,
To live once again, to live once again.
The walls of Jericho.
The walls of Jericho.
To walk on water, speak with fire,
To live once again, to live once again,
To live once again.
I watched a man, a man he died
Nailed to a cross, nailed to a cross,
Nailed to a cross.
He believes he can see the walls of Jericho.
Which the way, the way we are going?

Abgefahrene Band!!!

I used to look like the dark singer now I look like the blondie!
Déjanté? Oui complètement. Eux au moins ils étaient gothiques de chez gothiques.
Les Virgin Prunes ne se sont jamais considérés comme gothiques. Gavin Friday lui-même déteste le genre gothique. Eux se définissaient simplement comme de purs punks, libres et incontrôlables :)
Oui de pur punks t'as raison. Sorry.
N'oublions pas le message non plus !!!!!! Surtout de nos jours.....
